Caroline over at One Powerful Hour challenged us to see what we could create in one hour. That also includes cleaning! This week's theme was an open theme and since I am making a goodie basket to give to my mother in law next weekend, this was the perfect chance for me to get this part completed.
Here is a before picture:

And here are some after pictures:



I created this desk set for my mother in law. She is a professor at Georgia State University in Atlanta.
The clipboard was a neon green color (only one I could find at Walmart) and I painted the whole red. I then the stamped flowers in white craft ink. I applied the rub-on and then stamped the smaller flowers on the end. I modge podged the patterned paper and used my corner punch. I added the green ribbon to tie the green in the rub-on and the green in the patterned paper together. I then modge podged the whole thing to seal it. I cheated and used a hair dryer to get the paint to dry faster! LOL
The post it note holder was fast and easy. I bought a 4x6 acrylic photo frame and then cut a piece of patterned paper. I stacked some layers and then stamped my flower with stazon in and colored it. The sentiment was stamped in SU Real Red. I added red ribbon towards the bottom to jazz it up a bit. You can't tell in the picture, but there is a space between the post it note and the left hand side. I didn't have a pink post it note pad so the yellow will have to do.
I didn't get to the cup holder as I started this project at 8:40pm this evening. I want to finish that tomorrow.
